How To Manage Terrible Cough Causing Severe Back Pain And Spasms While Suffering Both Flu And Bronchitis?

I have been suffering with the flu and bronchitis simultaneously. I'm taking ceftin for the bronchitis and letting the flu run it's course. However, I get into terrible coughing spasms/fits that are relatively dry/ no major conjestion but they're so bad that I get to the point of gagging. I know have a severe pain in my back on the right side around my pelvic bone or si joint area. Did I do something coughing so hard? And what do I do for it? I can barely move or get up out if bed: it's making my coughing extremely painful and if I don't cough I can't breathe at times. FYI; doc did give me an inhaler to use. Thx for any advice.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem, if I would be your doctor then I would treat you with the following medicine'
1) Tab Terfenadine three times in day
2) Tab Mentelukast twice in day
3) Tab Azithromycin 500 mg once in day for three days
Take steam inhalation have more hot drinks, this will come around just be patience, this may take few days or weeks, have nice day.
